Angels having a meltdown
In a high-rise rental uptown
Now that everything comes down
To who you pray to and how loud

In our hearts, we’ve created the illusion
That we have more important things to learn
Days roll into nights in our confusion
We think happiness is what we’ve won

Angels having a meltdown
In a high-rise rental uptown
Now that everything comes down
To who you pray to and how loud

You may feel that nothing really changes
Yesterday, the only friend that sighs
We will always give in to temptation
The loneliness is louder when we’re high

You’re a wayward being when the dark hits
Comforted by silence in the void
Hooked on everything the crowded streets bring
Somehow feeling calmer in the noise

Angels having a meltdown
In a high-rise rental uptown
Now that everything comes down
To who you pray to and how loud

Angels having a meltdown
In a high-rise rental uptown
Now that everything comes down
To who you pray to and how loud
